A Genial Restorative.

Hostetter's Stomach Bitters are emphatically
genial restorative. The changes which this
great botanic remedy produces in the disordered
organization are always agreeably, though
surely, progressive. never abrupt and violent.
On this account 1t is admirably adapted to per-
sons of delicate constitution and weak nerves,
to whom the powerful mineral drugs are posi-
lively injurious. That it initiates those pro-
cessses which result in the re-establishment Of
healthful vigor is conspicuously shown in cases
where it is taken TO overcome that fruitful
causf Of debility, indigestion, coupled, as 1t
usually is, with biliousness and constipation.
Thorough digestion, regular evacuation. and
abundant secretion, are results which promptly
and invariably attend its systematic use. 1t Is,
besides, the best protective against malaria,
and q irst-rate diuretic.

Disappointed.

The editor of the Blue Knob Eagle
came 10 town the other day purposely
to make the acquaintance of the editor
of the Daily Aduocate, Col. Brooks.
Brooks had copied so many items from
the Eagle that the editor of that sheet
knew that he would be q welcome
guest. When he entered the Office of
the great daily, instead Of introducing
himself to the editor, he sat down care
lessly, chuckling inwardly at the sur
prise which he would create After a
while he said:
II see that You copy great deal
from the Blue Knob Eagle"
Eyes"
Rather like its matter, eh?"
ooh, it doesn't amount to much.
You see, copy it because the Eagle
has so little circulation that no one has
seen its stuff, which is consequently
new when I get it. If the paper had
any circulation / wouldn't clip a line
from it.
The disappointed editor did not in
troduce himself.-Arkansato Traveller.
